a new poll shows mitt romney taking the lead 49% to 45%. a complete reversal from about two weeks ago. a guy here last time around four years ago, how does he close the deal? what advice would you give him? i heard you the other day, he hasn't asked, but what advice would you give mitt romney that you wish you had gotten at this stage four years ago? >> i wish i had been a better candidate. no. i think mitt has got to understand that the president is an excellent debater. he'll be much stronger in the next debate. i think that it's obvious this whole attack -- matt, i've never seen anything like this continuous attacks, calling mitt romney a liar. that's not -- that's not an elevated debate. there may have outline and outline their differences but just calling people a liar is not, i think, appropriate for a presidential campaign, but mitt also has to stick to message. i'm sure he will. and i am confident that he will continue to do well. but do not underestimate president obama in the next election -- i mean, in the next debate. >> he won'

you've seen the polls nationally tight, romney leading. this is an election that will be decided state by state. how close is the race now? >> the first debate did sort of shift things. at first you had a lot of democrats that were trying to appease themselves by saying oh, all the movement in the polls is a bunch of soft republicans that quote, unquote come home to mitt romney, he shows life and all of this, but i have to say the numbers i've seen and in talking to both campaigns, something shifted fundamentally, and it is a dead heat, but it is one of these even right after the debate with obama campaigning, yes, it is a dead heat but we have the fundamentalists in battleground states. romney folks would have conceded that. this morning, the numbers in the last 72 hours, we are in a dead heat and you see the shift. this means, savannah, this debate couldn't be more critical for president obama because if he loses this debate, then you could start seeing a momentum continue to shift to romney. i think he would pull ahead in a lot of state
